Package: gtk+2.0 Version: 2.20.1-1 Severity: normal When a HP network printer is selected as default printer in GNOME, the GTK+ print dialog in applications like Evince and Firefox very often hangs when opened, showing "Getting printer information" for the printer.
Only after a delay of several seconds, the print button becomes active, and you can proceed. The problem does not happen, when no default printer is selected in the user account in GNOME. There is a work-around: comment the unix socket in /etc/cups/cupsd.conf and set ServerName 127.0.0.1 in /etc/cups/client.conf This launchpad bugs deals with the same problem on Ubuntu: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gtk+2.0/+bug/475845 -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (300, 'testing'), (200, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
